Welcome!

This blogging is all new to me. I'm hoping other "special needs" parents might find comfort in knowing they are not alone. Also, I think it is important for me to document my son's accomplishments, struggles, not to mention mine as well.

Here's something that'll put a tear in your eye

     A quick post......

     Yesterday after Colin's last basketball game for his school this was our conversation:

C: " You know I can't wait for next year. I am going to try out for the team. I might not make it but I'm going to try."
Me: " Go for it Colin!"
C: "I think I will make the team because I am really good at basketball, don't ya think Mom?"
Me: "Yes, yes you are!"

He's not good. Let me rephrase that, he's not good when he plays with "regular" kids. But, he is very good on his Special Olympics team and he has improved SO much.

We'll see what next year brings and if he really will want to try out for the team. At least I have a year to think about how we can handle this.
